I was going to be snarky and say this isnt as good as Holocure but having put a solid few hours in now i do actually prefer Holocure. Its very likely this comes down to play context, i mostly play holocure on my couch where i only play VS on my phone while commuting. Mainly i just think 30 minutes is too long. Its rare that i make it to 20 and then fail to make it to 30 and those last 10 minutes feel like the game is holding me hostage. It was a great commute game when i regularly died earlier in my runs but now im further in that rarely happens. I get why this blew up though. The loop is definitely satisfying. I just prefer the version with an anime coat of paint and a fishing minigame.
